Local Crossing Guard Esther Hines Shimmies & Shakes From Glenwood Onto News 12

If you cross Ocean Avenue and Glenwood Road in the morning, you already know about Esther Hines–a nimble-footed crossing guard who has served South Brooklyn for the past four years. News 12 caught Esther in her element last week, and made a great video of her protecting locals with an extra dash of pizzazz.

Esther explains to News 12 that cool as she looks, the whole point of dancing was to fend off chilly weather. She simply calls it multitasking.

“You make them smile,” Ester says, “why not? It makes my day.”

Before Esther took up her post at Ocean and Glenwood, she was marching to the beat of her internal drummer at Avenue L and CIA (see the non-News 12 account of that above)–but it’s nice to have her in this neck of the woods now. If you don’t get to experience her awesomeness on a daily basis, check out the more recent video here.
